Kristy Walker says she used to wake up every day on a diet and go to bed every
night a failure. Overweight and miserable, Walker eventually made a decision that
completely changed her life. She had bariatric surgery and lost 140 pounds. She doesn't
wake up depressed anymore and says the word "failure" is no longer part of her vocabulary.
